Mikkyy Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 Hey guys, for the past 3 - 4 months I've been having Instant shutdown problems with the AX1200i. [NOTE: Corsair Link had not been installed and the dongle has not been connected] Now the cause is the PSU's fan doesn't spin up when it should causing the unit to overheat and shutdown, giving the red light on the led. I have found a temp fix and it's quite obvious, all that needs to be done is to place a fan pushing air into the PSU and out the exhaust. For example I had a 200mm fan laying around so I plugged it into a system fan slot on my motherboard, ramped it up to 100% in bios and haven't had a shutdown since. Hope this helps you guys while getting a new PSU or waiting for an Express RMA or a LINK dongle to configure the PSU's fan. Peace, -Mikky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees Corsair Mint Posted August 21, 2018 Corsair Employees Share Posted August 21, 2018 Sorry for the weird behavior, the fan should stay off until needed, but if it's not turning on under heat stress, there's definitely a problem. If you haven't yet, reach out to support so they can help with a replacement for you. http://support.corsair.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
